everything OK until the flashing stops and the XOOM screen says "enter password" - I entered the password I used on the XOOM to no avail - any ideas?

Hi
I encountered a strange login screen after my xoom crashed after an successfull update without no reason. I searched the web and forums but couldn't find any reference.
Short story:
- Xoom bootlooped for no reason one day after recovery
- bootet into recovery, did da fullwipe
at the moment there is no os on the android as i wasn't able to flash one yet
if i now let the xoom boot, it first shows a boot animation with an android with a gear-ish badge around his belly and then it shows a login menu where i can enter a password (no username). I tried every password the xoom could possibly know, but no luck so far.
has anyone seen this screen before? What is the password?
What kind of a wipe did you do...for there to be no OS? Am I misunderstanding you?
i did a full wipe from the stock recovery menu? from my understanding it deletes everything on the device hence no os? or am i not getting this right? if not, the login screen is even more wired
Factory reset wipes your data.

I just completed the process of rooting/installing CWM Mod1.3.0.1/installing Primordial 1.3.
Each step was successful but after completing step 2-CWM Mod1.3.0.1 and rebooting, I was presented with a Device Password login screen. Since I did not have the password I could not login.
Went ahead and sucessfully installed Primordial 1.3 and rebooted. I was back to the password login screen without a valid password.
I rebooted into CWM and did a factory reset and cleared all user data and rebooted but was back to the password login screen without having a valid password. Tried factory reset again with the same result.
Does anyone have a suggestion for clearing the password or bypassing this login screen?
I've installed Gingerbread 2.3.6 on my SGS and on it's start it says: "Confirm password" ... What password should I enter ?
Confirm password sounds like it wants you to choose a password, but that doesn't sound normal.
If you have no data to loose, reboot to recovery and factory reset it again.
Where did you get the ROM?
Hi all,
I'm running CM11 on a Moto G. Due to work requirements I encrypted my phone via the security settings. It all went as expected, until I got to the screen where I have to enter my password to decrypt storage...
Once I enter the correct password, it loads a screen with an android on (I think it was similar to the one from the encryption screen) very briefly, then goes blank. I presume it turns off as it doesn't do anything else for quite a while. If I reboot and try enter an incorrect code, it prompts for the right code, so I'm definitely entering the correct pin.
My questions is - is there any way around this (without wiping the phone)? Any idea what's gone wrong?
I can still access recovery, but obviously it's rather limited as it's all encrypted. Is there any way I can connect via PC to get my files and decrypt them as I know the password?
hi, i'm running the 5.0.0 version (i think) and i recently made a new pattern lock as a security measure. however i forgot the pattern. GG
after i got locked out, i installed android device manager from my pc to my phone. it says the install was successful, and i'm on the android device manager webpage to get a password lock sent to my phone, however the screen that displays the actual INPUTTING of the password doesn't appear ;(
i get the recovery message screen to display on my phone, but nowhere does it allow me to put in a password.
is my only option to factory reset it?
tldr; phone doesn't receive password lock - what can i do now
